Phantasmal
Phantasmal is a Microsoft game that has been written using the popular, long-standing, massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Phantasy Star Online. The game has already spawned a number of novel interpretations and cameos on the Internet.
However, the games are not as popular. They are not as popular as they used to be. For example, Heroes of Teras, a browser-based PC RPG, is popular with 50,000 registered users, but it is not as popular as the next closest to Second Life.
These other titles are known as Phantasy Star Online Adventures: We Just Want to Go Now, while Heroes of Teras (which is set in the universe of Phantasy Star Online) is a completely different sort of game.
A large portion of the Phantasy Star Online community has played the games. "Phantasy Star Online Adventures: We Want to Go Now" is the first example of the game, but we can't say for sure if it will become one of the main subscription games, or if it will become another, as part of a multi-year PC gaming campaign. It is called, "Phantasy Star Online 2, just like the original, but for Phantasy Star Online 2 specifically. This is also the first game to launch on PlayStation and PC," according to its developer.
"Phantasy Star Online 2 and Phantasy Star Online 2 are very different games, but I am not saying they are going to be the next Phantasy Star. It's just something that we hope to be able to publish," Gustafa Grasshopper Manufacture's Yu Takai said. "It's something we plan to bring to the next Phantasy Star game. We will release it on PlayStation and PC. However, we want to keep adding content. The more content we add, the more possibilities for more fans. We want to offer the best experience for our fans, but also to the fans, so we will be expanding this product further."
For PlayStation owners, the game supports full online play, but they'll need a PS Plus membership to play.
"I don't have an example from the platform. It's an online service, but I am not saying that PSN is full-fledged online, but I am saying that we have some content on PS4, but we have a bunch of cool stuff that we are really excited about that will be on PS4, including exclusive to the PS4," he said. "There are some cool stuff that we have planned, and we are really excited about that. There's also some cool stuff that we are working on, and hopefully we can announce it in the coming weeks."
Speaking of exclusive content, last month it was announced that Tomb Raider's full single-player campaign will be a timed exclusive for PlayStation. However, the game is not coming to Xbox 360 or PS3.
"Right now we are focused on the core game for the new platforms," Kallos said. "You know, we're not talking about exclusives, but that is the goal," he added. "We are talking about those new consoles, and I think that we'll definitely talk about those two consoles over the next few weeks."
Following a brief tease, Tomb Raider was renewed for a November release. Last year, Square Enix announced that the game had sold one million copies. The publisher has not yet announced a new launch window for the game.
The game's single-player is being developed by Crystal Dynamics, which was made up of some of the team responsible for the original game. Players will take on the role of Lara Croft and travel through the world of tomb raiding, puzzle-solving, and otherwise trying to find a missing archeologist. Crystal Dynamics is also at work on an all-new IP, which is being described as "something really different from the rest."
"What we've been trying to do for the past ten years is to be able to deliver something really different, and we want to show what we can do in a brand-new IP, not just to be very different from what we've done for previous Tomb Raider games," Crystal Dynamics said. "I think we've always made a mistake."
Square Enix also reiterated the positive reputation that the game's original developer, Eidos-Montréal, is bringing to the table with its upcoming project. Its latest game, Thief's End, has been in development for some time, and was formally announced during E3 2015. There have been rumors of the game being in development hell for some time, but it's being developed externally.
"We're gonna be completely self-published, creatively independent," Crystal Dynamics creative director Sean Vanaman said last month. "What we've been trying to do for the past 10 years is make this a big project with a big budget, but we've been getting progressively better and better and better at it.
